Everyone seems to agree on the direction suggested here:

I think that will resolve a lot of concerns.

There's only one thing that bothers me about that article: it calls the 
people who complain about ZCML either "Python purists" or "die-hard Zope 
2 coders", when you and I are neither.  We are Zope evangelists, and our 
concern is that the current ZCML is a significant barrier for others who 
want to learn and adopt Zope.
